Hello @Aswath A,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Q&A.

Based on your description, I understand that you have installed and configured the GCP Audit Log Data Connector and GCP Firewall Data Connector in Microsoft Sentinel. However, on the Sentinel Overview page, you are not seeing any Data Connector information. Instead, it displays:

"No data connectors found. Add data connectors to ingest data into Microsoft Sentinel."

This behavior is expected if the installed Data Connectors are not in an Active (Connected) state.

Example for Better Understanding: In my Sentinel Workspace, I have 1 Active Connector and 8 Inactive Connectors.

If I navigate to the Sentinel Overview page, it displays only the Active Connector count. (Refer to the screenshot below for reference.)

Please check whether your Data Connectors show a status of "Connected" or "Disconnected".

If the status is "Disconnected", follow the steps in this Q&A document to activate it:
